Hamas were the "govt" of Gaza.

Everyone who worked for the "govt" was therefore counted as being "Hamas".

And if they were counted as being "Hamas" then they were "terrorists"

And therefore their deaths was A-OK.

You know, the dog-catchers, the postmen, the telephone-operators, those sorts of guys....

"were members of terror organizations who took part in the fighting" ... "These include the Hamas police cadets who were killed in an Israeli air strike at the beginning of the operation".

Doesn`t that seem like a rather odd definition of "taking part in the fighting"?

If you take that definition then EVERY Gazan who found themselves under the pointy end of an IDF bomb was "taking part in the fighting".....

.....ahh, don`t bother, I`m pretty sure I`ve just answered my own question.
